    Let \(Q_ 1=\mathbb{Q}(\Theta)\), where \(\Theta\in\mathbb{C}\) is an arbitrary transcendental number, and let \(Q^*_ 1\) denote an algebraic extension of \(Q_ 1\) of finite degree. In his earlier paper [Ukr. Mat. Zh. 37, No. 2, 232-237 (1985; Zbl 0568.10018)] the author applied Gelfond's method for proving algebraic independence to the consideration of simultaneous approximations of exponentials by the numbers of special kind from \(Q^*_ 1\). In the present work a more general case is considered. Suppose that \(d^ 2+m+d>md>m+d\), and that the numbers \(z_ 1,\dots,z_ m\in\mathbb{C}\) and the numbers \(b_ 1,\dots,b_ d\in\mathbb{C}\) are linearly independent over \(\mathbb{Q}\). The result of the paper gives a bound for the simultaneous approximation of the numbers \[ z_ 1,\dots,z_ m; b_ 1,\dots,b_ d; e^{b_ k z_ t} \quad (k=1,\dots,d;\;t=1,\dots,m) \] by the elements of \(Q^*_ 1\) under certain (mild) assumption on linear independence measures of the elements of \(\{b_ 1,\dots,b_ d\}\) and \(\{z_ 1,\dots,z_ m\}\).
